After Action Report

The Nuggets buried the Trail Blazers 130-103. The Trail Blazers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nuggets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nuggets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
